    Brings back some memories - the times I’ve had to enjoy the mess room on the old ‘Plat 10’… Good to see, thank you for sharing.

      Stratford was mostly a waste land of a past industrial at the time

    7:45 never seen a freight train pass through platform 5.
    Also I thought the DLR didn't open till 1987.

      If you look carefully, the seats are all covered - the unit was on test with some one at the manual controls if needed.
